In a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, 34 US lawmakers have expressed “grave concerns” over “increasing intolerance and violence” against members of minority communities in India.

It refers to a June 2014 ban on “non-Hindu religious propaganda,
prayers, and speeches” in their communities imposed by 50 village
councils in Bastar, Chattisgarh, which it says has effectively
“criminalized the practice of Christianity for an estimated 300
Christian families in the region”.

The letter then said the “nearly country-wide beef ban is increasing
tensions and encouraging vigilante violence against the Indian Muslim
community”.

It went on to cite the death of two Sikh men in October during
protests over the desecration of the religion’s holy book, Sri Guru
Granth Sahib.

..Really? How many Sikhs died due to hate crime in the US in recent years.
